Tonight is the last of four one night stops this week. We stayed here at Big Snow Ski Resort near Wakefield MI last year on a Friday night. That time we were among several Harvest Hosts guests. Tonight we are the lone camper and have a prime spot in the shade with nearby bright sun for our portable solar panels, but there’s a motorcycle rally here all weekend so we’re not alone. As conscientious members, we adhere to the Harvest Hosts Code of Conduct including being a customer so we dined this evening at the Sky Bar, at the top of the ski slopes, with Kate as our delightful server. Dinner was Fried Pickles and Taco Salads washed down by fine Widow Maker Black Ale from the Keweenaw Brewing Company in nearby Houghton MI. Now we’re enjoying the shade and expect to enjoying lingering a bit tomorrow morning since we have only a one hour drive to our next destination. Life is good!
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
Enjoy the peace and quiet! XOXOX
Well done you guys.
